Chapter 558 Long time no see
Jiang Qian fainted.

The journey from heaven to hell takes only a fleeting moment.

While still on the ship, she was playing a cat-and-mouse game with Li Dachui.

As she climbed the mountain, she looked down at Li Dachui from her high position, admiring the way a loser was trying to appear calm in front of her.

Even as she boarded the hospital ship, she was still considering how to gain more benefits from Li Dachui as a victor on the verge of victory.

Clearly, killing the other party is not the best option right now; the best thing to do is to negotiate and extract more of Li Dachui's remaining value.

Of course, she had no intention of letting Li Dachui leave.

Jiang Qian felt that both the medical ship and the Qiankun Qi cultivated by Li Dachui were extremely valuable.

Even if we don't have to study them all thoroughly, just extracting a small portion of useful information from them would be of great benefit to both the country and ourselves.

He had thought of everything, but he never expected that Li Dachui would turn the tables on him at the last moment, and that he would end up being completely at the mercy of his opponent.

Actually, Jiang Qian can't really be blamed for this.

This medical ship was a blind spot in their knowledge; they had no idea how it worked, let alone that Li Dachui's location allowed him to control every part of the entire medical ship.

It was precisely because of these differences in understanding, coupled with the mentality of having everything under control, that Jiang Qian became separated from her subordinates.

Then, they were locked in different cabins.

Although Jiang Qian, who was alone, had a much deeper cultivation than Li Dachui, she was still born with a weak constitution, and her Phoenix Fire was suppressed by the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Jiang Qian's fainting was not only physical, but also psychological.

Psychologically speaking, it is indeed difficult to accept that Jiang Qian, who was a powerful innate master and a person in charge of everything, was suddenly stripped of what she relied on most and became an ordinary person. Moreover, Jiang Qian's defeat today is not limited to this small cabin, but can be magnified to the entire Chu Kingdom and even the whole world.

Is Jiang Qian only interested in seizing the State of Chu?
Of course not.

Taking over the State of Chu was only her first step. After that, she led her troops north to conquer the State of Qin, subdue the lands beyond the Great Wall, and finally unify the world, making the country whole. In the end, with these great achievements that no one had accomplished in hundreds of years, she achieved the supreme status and achieved the goal that no woman in history had been able to achieve - becoming an empress.

That is her grand goal.

This is something that neither the founder of the Divine Sect, Qingfeng, nor her idol, He Qingqiu, could achieve.

And now, she knows it's all over.

Disappointed, she fainted at that moment, no longer thinking about these things, which was actually a form of protection for her.

On the physical level, having suffered severe physical damage, she also needs a deep sleep to recover.

Li Dachui stretched out his palm and placed it on her lower abdomen.

He squinted slightly and could feel a brand new Phoenix Flame Seed sprouting in Jiang Qian's dantian.

Jiang Qian can rebuild the Phoenix Flame, and during the rebuilding process, she will no longer encounter any obstacles, but will instead make rapid progress.

The river channel has been completely dredged and widened; the remaining task is to divert water into it.

Raising an eyebrow, Li Dachui carefully sensed the new blue star seed and clearly felt the distinct silver edging on the petals.

The Phoenix's Fire technique was operating on its own, and in just a short while, the tiny spark had grown considerably stronger.

This discovery made Li Dachui raise an eyebrow.

If this rate continues, Jiang Qian will be able to recover all the cultivation she just absorbed in a few years.

Or it might be a little shorter at this point.

Because this is a positive cycle, the deeper one's cultivation becomes, the faster one's cultivation speed will become. The Qi of Heaven and Earth is truly an interesting cultivation method.

It's no wonder that even those who cultivate the Phoenix Queen's Fire and the Moon's Weak Water, which are separated from it, can become the world's top experts.

Standing up, Li Dachui looked at Jiang Qian lying on the ground and said with a smile, "You should rest here for a while. I'm going to take a walk on the boat and reminisce about my old home from hundreds of years ago."

At this point, her smile faded, and a hint of sadness appeared on her face.

My former companions are all gone.

My friend Qingfeng also came to this world, but unfortunately, she misread the compass, and there was a time difference of hundreds of years between us.

Even though we live in the same world, we have no chance to meet again.

Li Dachui took his nameplate off the control panel and walked out.

The hatch closed behind him once again.

Knowing the way well, I went from the third floor, where the control panel was located, to the second floor.

The second floor is where Qingfeng works, which is the main body of the ship: the medical cabin.

The bottom layer contains all sorts of machines on the ship, most of which are used to manufacture various medicines and reagents.

Just like the treatment equipment on the second floor, these things are energy-intensive. Putting aside whether they can still function after lying on the ground for hundreds of years, even if they could, Li Dachui wouldn't turn them on.

If only these most basic functions are guaranteed, the nuclear fuel can last for another ten years. If all functions are turned on, the fuel will be completely depleted in a day and a night, and then the thing will truly become a dead lump.

The key issue is that even if it's running 24/7, you can't do anything. These machines take several hours just to warm up!

Just to see the ship's former dazzling lights, would you exhaust all its energy at once?
As long as it has energy, it is still alive.

Li Dachui still had some hope.

This is his only companion in this world.

It also reminds Li Dachui who he is, where he comes from, and that he is not alone.

Stepping into the core compartment of the medical ward, Li Dachui's pupils contracted slightly.

In other parts of the ship, only the most basic functions were guaranteed, and even the main control system needed to be restarted and woken up by itself. But here, there was still one instrument that was still running.

He walked a few steps to the instrument, and looking at the nameplate on the outside of the instrument, Li Dachui's expression became excited.

He quickly tapped a few keys on the keyboard, and with a buzzing sound, the seemingly flat workbench slowly rose upwards.

It was a sealed, completely transparent glass box.

The box was filled with a colorless, transparent liquid, and a person was submerged inside the liquid.

More accurately, it is a person who has been dead for hundreds of years.

She lay there quietly.

His face was serene.

Li Dachui placed his hands on the box, staring at the woman inside who seemed to be asleep.

Tears streamed down silently.

"Qingfeng, it's been a long time!"
